On Wednesday, I signed up for a gym membership. I have been twice so far, and I love it. It's not busy like LA fitness where you have to wait on others to get a machine or limit your run to 30 minutes to allow others on. The atmosphere reminds me of my advanced physical conditioning class in high school.
My friend, Kylie, contacted me this week about the mini-marathon. She is already a fit unit ready to take on 13.1 miles while I have quite a bit of catching up to do, but we have agreed to run the mini together. My goal is to set my PR and run it in 2:15 this year. With all of this in mind, I think I'll have to buy some new songs for my iPod to clock in better training hours.
I have put together a training schedule that has running, cross training, and strength training mixed up throughout the week to help me get on track. I have a tendency to do too much too fast in my initial training and therefore burning out early, so I used this article from Women's Health Magazine for some ideas of what the week should look like at the beginning of training.
